Joe,
Thanks for taking the call while you are on vacation-I have attached the January 2005 Massachusetts Environmental Policy
Act-Executive Office of Environmental Affairs FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT(FEIR)where I highlighted that
the approved FEIR report was based on an annual volume of 237,250 tons per year.Also, I have attached the first couple
pages of the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection-Bureau of Waste Prevention-Solid Waste
Management Form BWP SW 01 Site Suitability Report for a New Site Assignment where I highlighted in Section 4 just to
point out that we have increased the Holt Road Lot size from 5.8 acres to 7.8 acres along with an additional adjacent parcel
that adds 2 more acres putting us at 10 acres on Holt Road. I highlighted Section 6(c)-similar to the FEIR-that indicates a
yearly capacity of 237,250 tons.
What we are looking to do-where it was the Board of Health that reduced the daily volume of 650 tons per day to 500 tons
per day or from 237,250 annual tons down to 156,000 annual tons-is come before the Board of Health and look to get back
the 150 tons per day and put us back to where the MA DEP FEIR, MA DEP BWP SW 01 Site Assignment,and all of the
submittals to the Board of Health were all based on an annual volume of 237,250 tons.
When you are back in North Andover and you and Brian LaGrasse have some time to tour the facility and talk about the 150
tons per day just give us a call and we will make ourselves available.
Thanks Again,
Jeff

CERTIFICATE OF THE SECRETARY OF ENVIRONMENTAL AFFAIRS
ON THE
FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT .REPORT
PROJECT NAME : TBI Transfer & Recycling Facility
PROJECT MUNICIPALITY : 210 Holt Road - North Andover
PROJECT WATERSHED : Merrimack River
EOEA NUMBER : 13203
PROJECT PROPONENT : TBI, Inc.
DATE NOTICED IN MONITOR : December 8, 2004
As Secretary of Environmental Affairs, I hereby determine
that the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) submitted .on
the above project adequately and properly complies with the
Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act (G. L. c. 30, ss . 61-62H)
and with 'its implementing regulations (301 CMR 11.00) .
Project Description:
As described in the FEIR, the project consists of the
construction of a 30, 000 square foot (sf) transfer station and
recycling facility for -construction and demolition (C&D) material
and coimnurcial solid waste. The facility is proposed to handle a
maximum of 650 tons per day (tpd) or a total of 237, 250 tons per
year. The 6-acre site contains a 15,000 sf building that is used
by a solid waste company for maintenance and office use. This use
accounts for 2 acres of the .site, and the other 4 acres is used
as a storage lot for solid waste transfer trucks and trailers.
The proposed facility will be located on this 4-acre portion of
the site.
Since the DEIR review, the proponent has made refinements to
the_project and is now proposing to install a Stormceptor unit to
improve total suspended solids (TSS) removal rates from
stormwater flows_ The proponent has also committed to restricting
the release of transfer trailers onto surrounding roads during
the weekday pm peak hours of 4 : 00 to 6: 00 pm. Furthermore, it has
*^rj Prided on Recycled Snick20%Poe ConsumerWoes
EOEA #13203 FEIR Certificate January 14, 2005
redefined the Commercial Solid Waste (CSW) that it will accept to
not include waste with a high proportion of food waste, such as
restaurant waste. This mitigation measure was incorporated to
prevent potential vectors (birds) at the nearby airport. .
The facility will be equipped with roll-up doorways that
will only be opened to allow trucks to enter and exit the
building. All operations and processing will be confined to the
building. The non-recyclable construction and demolition waste
will be loaded onto trailers for transport to disposal sites, and
recycled goods will be collected for transportation to recycling
facilities.
Trucks carrying waste will enter the transfer station via
the main entrance on Holt Road, and they will exit via the same
driveway. Trucks arriving to pick up recyclable goods and wastes
will enter from the main driveway and will exit two driveways
leading from trailer pits along either side of the building. A
total of 30 parking spaces for employees and visitors currently
exist, and the proponent is proposing another 15 parking spaces.
According to the proponent, the existing operations generate
approximately 70 trips per day. The proposed project is estimated
to generate an increase of approximately 292 vehicle trips per
day. The proponent has indicated that the hours of operation are
between 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM, seven days per week. It will serve
the northeast region of Massachusetts.
Standards and Purpose of MEPA Review:
The project has generated a substantial number of comments,
many of which have expressed opposition to the proposed project.
As part of the MEPA process, I do not make substantive judgements
as to the proposed land use, nor will I act as an agent of appeal
or affirmation of local or regional land use decisions. MEPA is
not a zoning process, nor is it a permitting process. MEPA review
does not in itself result in any formal adjudicative decision
approving or disapproving a project.
The purpose of MEPA review is to ensure that a project
proponent studies feasible alternatives to a proposed project;
fully discloses environmental impacts of a proposed ,project; and
incorporates all feasible means to avoid, minimize, or mitigate
Damage to the Environment as defined by the MEPA statute. After
completion of the EIR process, the state permitting agencies must
then issue substantive decisions on whether or not to permit
those aspects of the project within their respective
jurisdictions. If permits are issued, the state agencies must
incorporate the information in the EIR process into their
required Section 61 Findings, thus formalizing the mitigation
2
1 •
EOEA #13203 FEIR Certificate January 14, 2005
commitments contained in the EIR.
Section 11. 08 (8) (b) of the MEPA Regulations requires me to
find a FEIR adequate if the aspects and issues have been clearly
described and their nature and general elements analyzed in the
EIR or during. MEPA review, that the aspects and issues can be
fully analyzed prior to any Agency issuing it Section 61.
Findings, and that there will be meaningful opportunities for
public review of. the additional analysis prior to any Agency
taking Agency Action on the Project. I find that the FEIR is
sufficiently responsive to the requirements of the MEPA
regulations and the Scope to meet the regulatory standard for
adequacy and may proceed to permitting.
Project Regulatory Environment:
The project will require a Determination of Site Suitability
(310 CMR 16. 00) , an Authorization to Construct, an Authorization
to Operate Permit, and a Limited Air Plan Approval from the
Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) . A National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit for
stormwater discharges from a construction site will be required.
Since the proponent is not seeking financial assistance from the
Commonwealth for the project, MEPA jurisdiction is limited to
those aspects of the project whose environmental impacts are
related to the subject matter of state permits (solid waste, air
quality, stormwater, and traffic) .
According to the proponent, the project will consume
approximately additional 550 gallons per day (gpd) of water and
will generate about 450 gpd of new wastewater. The project site
is connected to. the local municipal water system. The proponent
will be installing a Title .5 septic system for wastewater
collection. The drainage from the solid waste operations will be
collected in a storage tank that will be emptied by a licensed
contractor. - -
Review of the FEIR:
The FEIR described the proposed project, its operation and
its potential impacts. It discussed the project' s consistency
with the Beyond 2000 Solid Waste Master' Plan.
The FEIR provided the information needed for DEP to review
the proponent's Site Suitability, Site Assignment, and
Authorization to Operate a Large Handling Facility. As required
in my Certificate on the Draft EIR, the FEIR discussed the
concerns expressed over the disproportionate burden being created
by the concentration of waste facilities in this area. The FEIR
3
EOEA #13203 FEIR Certificate January 14, 2005
reviewed existing health studies for this area' s population
regarding respiratory problems to determine existing conditions.
Based on 'available information, the FEIR stated that there does
not appear to be a potential for increased health risk associated
with this facility on air quality. All existing and proposed
sensitive receptors within a half-mile of the project were
identified and the impacts to those receptors evaluated.
.The FEIR demonstrated that Best Management Practices would be
used to limit potential air pollution from the project. It
identified existing and future air quality in this area with this
facility. This air quality analysis identified the specific
stationary and mobile sources and the specific air contaminants
that• were measured. The FEIR also developed mitigation measures
to reduce the impacts of dust. • Appendix C in the FEIR reviewed
potential increases in dust and diesel emissions (particulate
matter) from this facility (stationary) .
Appendix D in the FEIR presented existing noise levels at
the site border. It identified that filters may be installed to
reduce noise escaping from the building vents as the project
completes its design process. The FEIR contained the
documentation in Appendix D for• the noise levels at the property
line as required by DEP.
*Appendix E in the FEIR provided a LOS analysis of the
Saturday midday peak hour for existing, no-build and build
conditions. The proponent corrected the mathematical errors and
inconsistencies in the traffic study.
The proponent was unable to identify the potential
communities in the wasteshed area for this proposed facility, and
relate this information to the proposed truck routes. This should
be reexamined in the DEP process if such information becomes
available. The FEIR identified the depth to groundwater at the
project site.
The FEIR outlined the proponents' specific measures to limit
odor, vermin, litter, and dust impacts to surrounding neighbors.
The proponent will ensure that litter/dust impacts on surrounding
streets are responded to by the proponent on a daily basis. A
monitoring and inspection program for these above issues was
included in the FEIR.
• I
Because the proposed facility may attract nuisance
populations of birds, the FEIR evaluated the potential impact on
the abutting -Lawrence Airport. The FEIR- addressed the concerns
identified by the Massachusetts Aeronautics Commission (MAC) . It I
submitted a Request for Airspace Review with the MAC and a Notice
of Proposed Construction to the Federal Aviation Administration
4 I

(FAA) . The FEIR addressed the MAC's concern with the FAA's
Advisory Circular (150/5200-34 (2000) ) .
The FEIR developed a fire prevention plan with the local
fire department.
The FEIR included copies of all comment letters. It
responded to all comments within the scope of the project.
The FEIR was circulated in compliance with Section 11. 16 of
the MEPA regulations and EJ Policies #13, 14, and 15. Copies were
sent to the list .of "comments received" below and to North
Andover, Haverhill, Lawrence, and .Methuen officials . A copy of
the EIR was made available for public review at the Public
Libraries in these above communities:
Summary of the FEIR Mitigation:
In the FEIR, the proponent committed to fund the following
mitigation measures:
• Construct an underground detention/infiltration basin for
stormwater collection ($150, 000) .
• Provide a new roadway sign on the Holt Road approach to
Route 125 .reminding truck drivers to take a left turn to
reach I-495 ($1, 000) .
• Work with MHD to develop signal-timing changes at the Route
125/Route 125 Connector intersection ($10, 000) .
• . Conduct traffic monitoring studies at the project site and
at the Route 125/Holt Road intersection 'after. 6 months of
operations and one year later to determine if traffic
signals are warranted ($10, 000) .
Provide for the proponent's fair share of the cost of
traffic signalization a-tffolt Road/'Route 125,- if traffic
signals are warranted (including a functional design report)
and approved by MHD ($35, 000) .
• Provide up to $5, 000 to the Town of North Andover for
actions to enhance traffic safety along Route 133.
• Stop accepting inbound material from outside parties during
peak evening hours.
• Commit to restricting transfer trailers or recycle trailers
leaving the site between 4: 00 pm and 6:00 pm.
• Commit to- provide electrically powered stationary •equipment
within the facility (quieter) and low-emission diesel
powered waste handling equipment.
• Provide periodic sweeping of Holt Road.
5
EOEA #13203 FEIR'Certificate January 1.4, 2005
• Use low-emission sulfur diesel fuel in facility vehicles.
Implement a dust emission sampling and analysis plan..
Based on a review of the FEIR and the comments submitted on
this project, I hereby find that the FEIR adequately and properly
complies with the MEPA regulations. I am confident that
outstanding issues. can be addressed in the state and local
permitting process and that the mitigation measures and
monitoring programs can be further refined to ensure the project
is developed and operated effectively. No further MEPA .review is
required at this time.

North Andover already hosts a large solid waste incinerator, and is a municipality that
participates in a regional disposal facility(the so-called'N.ESWC facility, also located on Holt
Road.) The purpose of these regulations is to avoid an undue concentration of solid waste
facilities in one community. The Board rinds that adding a new solid waste facility in North
Andover will add to the burden on North Andover. However, there are a number of mitigating
:factors.
First and foremost,TBI has reduced the proposed tonnage from 650 tons per day to 500
tons per day. This approximate 25%reduction in capacity reduces in a nearly linear fashion the
burden on the community from truck traffic, air emissions, and other aspects of the :facility.
While it is difficult to draw a precise dividing line as to an acceptable and.unacceptable burden,
the'Board:finds that the burden of a 500 ton per day facility is significantly more acceptable than
the burden of a 650 ton per day facility.
Second, the NESWC facility receives municipal solid waste, and not the C &D waste
proposed for this facility. The Board finds that neither North Andover nor the Merrimack
Valley region currently have a facilitycapable of handling the waste streams that TBI proposes
to accept.
Third,TBI has committed to significant recycling or waste diversion. The waste
diversion goals include-
0 50 percent,or 250 tons per day(tpd), waste diversion in the first two years of operation;
55 percent,or 2.75 tpd,waste diversion after two years of operation;
• 60 percent, or 300 tpd, waste diversion after five years of operation; and
• 75 percent,or'375 tpd,waste diversion after seven years of operation.
These goals will help the state meet recycling goals aimed at reducing the need for disposal.
